Really? So then people should be designing for 128 CPU machines, right?
So why is it that 100% of the SMP patches are incremental? Linux is
following exactly the same path taken by every other OS, 1->2, then 2->4,
then 4->8, etc. By your logic, someone should be sitting down and saying
here is how you get to 128. Other than myself, noone is doing that and
I'm not really a Linux kernel hack, so I don't count.
So why is it that the development is just doing what has been done before?
